what a wonderful job you do here! kudos to you.
I have two questions. One, I came across the 'dévise' (that's the french: in english it would be akin to 'motto', i would guess, i can't think of the word right now) 'Terminus Est' recently. Someone told me it translated to, 'This is the line of division.' Is this accurate? Two, how would one translate, I love and I hope' (from the French 'j'aime et j'espere)? Thanks in advance!

Greetings! Would anybody be able to translate for me:

"it's about time" (as in, "it's about time you two got married")
and
"at long last"

Thank you so much!

Anita

WILD: diffrent ways to translate it

torvus,-a,-um -- conveys the sense of savage or fierce
ferus,-a,-um -- conveys the idea of untamed, most often used of animals
ferox, -ocis -- conveys the sense either of high-spirited and warlike (the good sense) or of unbridled and arrogant (the bad sense)

Est means "is" or "it is"
Terminus can mean "boundary" (i.e. line of division) or "end".
So terminus est can also be translated "It is ended" or "It is the end."

I love and I hope.
Amo et spero.

Re: Translate English into Latin
Can someone translate these two sentences from English to Latin?

I will strengthen you and help; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Yes, I know it.

George, please don't let the frequency with which I have been at the door asking for translations breed contempt for me, but I am soon about to give a first card to the one I believe I have been providentially preserved for (in 30 years of life without dating, rejecting all the wrong women that came before), and I need to settle on just the right line for this card's final words. If you would help me with this one, I think you are going to end up being declared St. George.
So here is what I hope will not have to give way to yet another idea:
"Of all the fields, in all the valleys, on the entire earth, I had to find myself in this one where dwells the very epitome of all nature's graces.
I could no more forget you than myself.
My way into your realm leads to no way out."

Ex omnibus agris, in omnibus vallibus, in tota terra,
me ipsum habendum est in hac ubi summatio omnium
gratiarum naturae habitat.

Non enim possum te oblivisci
magis quam me ipsum obivisci.

Via mea in regnum tuum ad exitum non ducat.

Thank you so very much, George - a thousand times a thousand more Blessings on you.
One question:
I should read a second "oblivisci" for the "obivisci" - or was there a rhyme I would have recognized if I was further along with Latin knowledge?
I think I know the answer, but did not want to mistakenly add an /l/ by an uneducated presumption in setting it to paper.
Again, thank you very much. This is the Latin text I am going to go with.

Good eye, petros.
It's not an attempt to rhyme. The oblivisci is repeated for clarity, but could certainly be dropped.
